From the Tom Clancy of a new generation, a debut thriller following two CIA outcasts who must race to stop a secret Chinese weapon that threatens to provoke a world war. After her first assignment in Venezuela goes disastrously awry, rookie case officer Kyra Stryker is brought back to Langley to work in the Red Cell, the CIA's out-of-the-box think tank. There she's paired with Jonathan Burke, a straight-laced analyst who's alienated his colleagues with his unorthodox methods and a knack for always being right, political consequences be damned. When a raid on Chinese spies in Taiwan ends in a shootout, CIA Director Kathy Cooke turns to the Red Cell to figure out why China is ready to invade the island nation without any fear of reprisal from the U.S. Navy. Stryker and Burke's only lead is the top CIA asset in China, codenamed Pioneer. But when Pioneer reports that Chinese security has him under surveillance, Stryker is offered a chance for redemption by extracting him before he's arrested and executed. The answers he holds could mean the difference between peace in the Pacific or an escalating global conflict. From CIA headquarters to the White House to a Navy carrier in the South China Sea, Red Cell takes readers on a whirlwind race against time as Stryker and Burke work to save Pioneer and discover the hidden threat to America's power: China's top secret weapon. CIA analyst and Brigham Young University graduate Mark Henshaw infuses expert knowledge of the intelligence world into his novel to create a fascinating and pulse-pounding read.…

Review
"Red Cell"is as smart as it is exciting, a thriller that makes you think from the edge of your seat. Mark Henshaw s unique perspective from the inside makes it all feel terrifyingly real. Howard Gordon, co-creator of "Homeland" and author of "Hard Target"
Mark Henshaw clearly knows the terrain, from the geopolitical to the tradecraft in the shadows. I'm surprised this made it past the CIA censors. A rock solid thriller as plausible as tomorrow's headlines. Brad Taylor, "New York Times" bestselling author of "One Rough Man" and "All Necessary Force"
If you re looking for a great, authentic and thrilling story, look no further. Lock the door and turn off the phone, because you re going on a journey only a gifted insider like Mark Henshaw could take you on. This author is a rare double threat a man with the knowledge and access few have, and the rare talent as a writer to bring it to life. If you want to learn how things really work when it hits the fan, you can apply for a job at the CIA or read Mark s book. David Ayer, screenwriter of "Training Day "and "S.W.A.T."
Mark Henshaw is the real deal and he delivers big-time in his debut novel "Red Cell". Only a decorated CIA analyst like Henshaw could take you this deep into the psyche of CIA operatives and even deeper into one of the most dangerous and imminent geopolitical flashpoints of our times. If the events Henshaw plays out on the pages of his novel have not already taken place in secret, they may well play out in public sooner rather than later. Mr. President, this intelligence briefing is worth your special attention. Thomas Greanias, "New" "York Times" bestselling author of "Dominus Dei"
